BAM!!! Rooted baby!! Coming from a Windows Admin.....that root process was fun. Kinda kinky and almost............dirty!!! ;)
[Motorola Photon 4G] reddragon72:
So has anyone found a way to hide the root files so that updates don't delete them and you can get root back without the dock? Someone mentioned something about fish for something in a few threads back, but I can't find that now.
[Motorola Photon 4G] RhinoDoc:
ARRRGGGHHHH!!!! Finally had some time to try the root, went to the Sprint store, plugged into the dock, nothing happened. Tried to run Webtop from the applications list, wouldn't go. Spent a few minutes playing (I hadn't tried the dock before so I didn't know if there was something special I needed to do to get it up on the monitor). Finally one of the reps came by and told me that it has been broken for a few days - too many people jack around with it, plugging the phone in, taking it off, plugging it in, .... I guess the pins were broken in my store, too. Ah well, I will try a different store tomorrow. If all else fails I will probably just buy a dock. I don't think I would use it much other than for rooting, though. I really want the wireless tether since I have a trip next week.
[Motorola Photon 4G] joetemp75:
I am wondering the same thing. Don't want to have to go back to the sprint store

[Motorola Photon 4G] John Kotches:
Would someone be kind enough to post a link to the base xorg.conf file? I had to replace phones and forgot to grab xorg.conf.

Me being basically brain dead today I didn't make a safety copy (yeah, I know).

Unfortunately at this point, the webtop option doesn't even appear in the docking options which I find curious. I'm not sure if it's an issue with xorg.conf or something different.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sandtiger:
Went to the only Sprint store here in town that has an HD Dock. I got 'We do not support rooted devices so please do not use our equipment to root your device.' From one of the 'Techs?' wasn't one of the reps who were selling phones. The worst part is I was getting ready to download the file.
[Motorola Photon 4G] CCallahan:
Should of just told them it is your phone and if you want to void the warranty that is your choice. They don't have to support it.

As for me, just bought 2 docks for $38/e. Turned in 3 older phones for credit and got the 25% off. Not too bad. Then rooted of course. ;-)
[Motorola Photon 4G] John Kotches:
Using the webtop without dock apks solved my issue. Very nice indeed and running at 1080p.

Cheers,

I am walking in to my local sprint store now. I have the instructions written on my wrist. Kinda excited to go try this mission.

I took pictures, but dont have time to install tapatalk before my op.

Ill keep you posted....
[Motorola Photon 4G] tracebass21:
Think i did it wrong. Couldn't extract it to a specific file. Plus, i didn't install their bluetooth keyboard, so i had to type on my photon and use their mouse.

I am next door eating. Does anyone have a suggestion for me to extract it to the reqd file location.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mikeyinid:
you dont need the dock to root anymore...
[Motorola Photon 4G] tracebass21:
Oh!! I went back to the sprint store and docked before opening my extracting file. I think i did it right. Is there a way to tell if you are rooted after following the directions given here?
[Motorola Photon 4G] chris heath:
I just did the over the air update, and lost root. tried to do the steps again didnt work. any ideas?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Medic97:
Download terminal and type su if # comes up your rooted

Or download root checker
[Motorola Photon 4G] chris heath:
I ended up do the software update posted on here and re rooting again. Works fine. Anyone know why I got an over the air update if I did the software update here?
[Motorola Photon 4G] ScandaLeX:
I did the update last night and now cant seem to re-root using the dock. Keep getting permission denied no matter what I do. The instructions for rooting this way are pretty straight forward. Back in August when I did it, I was done in no time....now nothing. (sad face).
[Motorola Photon 4G] slseed:
Looks like they updated the webtop with the last push so that the Xarchiver doesn't run as root any more so when you extract the tar file, it's not setuid root any more. I'm having the same problem. We need another way to get the script onto the phone. Maybe one of the other root methods is better now.
[Motorola Photon 4G] John Kotches:
Photon Torpedo works perfectly....

In my experience you must push the tar file with adb for it to work.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ORam78:
FYI,

The AIO version works just fine to root. I was under the impression edgans method was the best way to go. Looks like AIO is a good way to get done quickly and easily now.
[Motorola Photon 4G] deedscreen:
I manually rooted my phone, then went to unlock the bootloader and backed up my phone, did a factory reset, and because I haven't found the time to restore my backup, I used AIO. My unlocking procedure miserably failed numerous times.

I'll try again before I restore....
[Motorola Photon 4G] arivis:
Can any body please help me get the pulse.tar file?

I did the over the air update and lost my root access and since I already own the dock-hd, I prefer to root it via the dock. Thanks in advance for your help.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mapin0518:
Your being linked to by someone who claims you aren't giving proper credit to the person who found the exploit to root the Photon 4G. Care to comment? Just curious... see here: http://vulnfactory.org/blog/2011/11/11/plagiarism-in-the-android-rooting-scene/

bliss prolly meant to link my thread, since it uses the droid 3 exploit. ive yet to update the thread since changing it. as it was originally based off this exploit.

and regardless bliss is a very very smart guy with regards to security. ive talked to him before on several times while he rooted the admire
[Motorola Photon 4G] PokrTom:
Is there anyone that still has access to the pulse.tar file linked in the instructions?

Ii have tried rooting my old phone, so I can upgrade & move it to T-Mobile for a relative that is on the streets and all the rooting instructions here are not working, they crap out when trying to create new files curing the temp root stage, I think its because the phone got the OTA update and I remember being able to root my other phone that did get the OTA using this method. (This one was actually my wives and she wouldn't let me root it.) I'm hoping that once I get it rooted I can hopefully take a back step and maybe get to the bootloader so I can upgrade it with MIUI(?) to 4.1.2 using one of the methods listed that require root, but one step at a time, ya know.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harpdoc:
A little background--I'm not a newbie and have been running custom roms on my Fascinate for many months (and my Droid before it), but I'm also not an expert or programmer. OK, with that out of the way, here's the issue. When JT came out with the first version of CM7 I switched to it from the Froyo CommRom. Since CM7 had a lot of issues in the early days, I carefully followed this sticky and returned to CommRom: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1124391

I've since had a pattern of getting severe force closes, to the point that the phone become non-functional, after several days of everything working fine. This has happened with CommRom, Evil Fascinate, CM7, and currently JT's Vanilla Gingerbread. I've gone back to stock many times, have cleared everything (including data), have run the ext4 formatter, have tried different radios (currently on EC09), and have tried different roms. In each case everything runs wonderfully for 2-4 days, then FC's begin. I use Titanium Backup Pro to restore things, but have been doing so without restoring data, since some say that causes FC's. I've also unchecked the options to have Google back up data, since some say that causes FC's.

I'm out of ideas and am getting tired of clearing data and starting over every few days. I suppose I could restore things to stock and see how that runs, but that might be too painful to survive. Anyone have any other ideas?:confused:
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skafan2:
You mentioned that you restore apps with Titanium. Do you restore only downloaded apps, or system apps as well? Different ROMS often have different versions of system apps, which can cause problems when restoring.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KaceMN:
I'd like to see this topic explored a bit deeper. My girlfriend and I both have Fascinates as well, and each of us sees significant force-close rates...not to the point where the phone doesn't function...but 5-10 per day.

Is this simply a chronic fascinate problem on the newer ROMS (we've used MIUI and Vanilla GB).
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhoenixPath:
Have you tried going 4 days without any restore of any kind?

Try a fresh install from atlas/pit/ed05 and go with that for 4 days... No restores.

Probably not the answer you want, but it sounds like your backups contain corrupt data.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidstyle:
no its not a fascinate problem, its more likely user error... you must be installing apps & data with tibu. when jumping roms, only restore app's only. Also another thing to try is, boot into cwm, wipe cache, dalvik, and fix permissions.

Fwiw I very seldom ever get a FC...
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P-bot:
I've been following the same pattern of behavior with the switching of ROMs and backing up with Titanium by restoring data and apps. My Fascinate picked up a number of bad habits along the way: phantom back button and keyboard button pressing, screen waking back up after I shut it off, and some force closes but nothing like some are reporting here.

I recently switched to PWGB which wipes all data. I used Titanium to restore contacts and text messages only and re-downloaded all the apps from the market.

Since the wipe everything has been smooth and error free. :D
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidstyle:
you can use titanium to restore apps, long as you install app only.... do not install app+ data, thats where you run into problems.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lagbot7000:
I am experiencing this same issue. I first upgraded to CM7 nightlies back around August and that seemed to be the source of the issue. Each time it occurred, I would wipe data and it would disappear for several days or weeks. I then switched to jt's Vanilla GB, and had the same issue. Now I am on CM7.1 and am continuing to have the same problem. Wiping data seems to fix the problem, but it consistently returns after several days.

I did have some success with disabling sync and clearing data for the Contacts Storage and Google Framework applications, which seemed to stop the force-closing temporarily, but they did ultimately return. This only seemed to work for me once.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidstyle:
download disk usage from the market and check to see how full your /datadata folder is. I bet its full. there is a thread on rootzwiki about. you can either delete some apps or jt has a tweak to fix the issue.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkropf:
I agree with this. Last summer I ran into a series of similar issues (fc and what not) on several roms. What I learned for myself is i never restore ANYTHING. What I do use tho is APP LIST BACKUP which is a very convenient and fast way to download apps fresh from the market. I currently enjoy a fc free phone :)

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] chrischoi614:
Hi,

I have recently bought the Flyer from Hong Kong which runs the asian firmware.

Android version

2.3.3

HTC Sense version

2.1 for Tablet

Software number

1.48.1302.34

I am wondering if I can flash the flyer with WWE rom over it because the asian firmware seems to be...not updating at all. Well regardless to the updating issue, I still want to flash it and I would like to know if it's possible. and How to do it too. Thanks!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] redpoint73:
I think you need to make a gold card to flash the WWE ROM, since its not intended for your device.

If you can get rooted and S-Off, that will also allow you to flash the ROM. But if the HK Flyer has the 1.07 HBoot like the Taiwan Flyer, then the Revolutionary root method does not yet support your device.

Questions

Really appreciate this post.

I have been thinking to get the HTC Flyer for ages. Seeing with the S off and Perm Rooting plus using the Stock Phone ROM (only Bluetooth) I am tempted to get soon.

However, I read some parts : Whatsapp is not working after S-off and perm root. Apparently it does not recognise the IMEI at all.

see relevant post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1197021

which means if I guess it correctly, after s-off and perm root, with includes new ROMs (phone app), normal SMS apply but regards to apps like Whatsapp and Viber may cause issues?

Anyone can verify this? (*Esp S-off users and perm rooters?)

thanks.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] redpoint73:
This is a completely different issue/question than the original post. Create own thread, or post to the threads discussing Viber and Whatsapp (there are several, I believe).
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] cyko:
You don't need to plug it in while downloading the ROM. The reason I say to unplug it is to make sure people don't try to run the ROM update utility with the Flyer attached.
[HTC Inspire 4G] BoostedEK:
Hey I'm having some issues with my Inspire 4G. The videos I recorded from my phone are not working at the moment. I have a couple of them and they all don't work. When I try to watch them, I hear the sound but the screen either skips or nothing just doesn't move at all. Also, the YouTube videos works but the HQ ones sometimes or maybe all the time skips in some places.

I have another Inspire 4G which doesn't do any of that. Videos work perfect as well as HD videos.

I had the newest version of flash installed also, but I read from someone on this forum about the flash and they had a link posted for 10.2 I believe, which they said it would work better than 10.3.

But yeah.. could anyone help me out here?

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:

Without an invoice, warranty can be based on the manufacturing date (serial#). My TF is in the shop right now. You have the option to show the invoice but not required. Once repaired, it's warranted for 3months or the remaining from the original invoice date.
[Continuum General] Kiboe:
going to make this short, and to the point. as you all know from a previous post i made a few weeks ago, i recently de-activated my continuum in favor of a droid incredible (which is running gb now, woo) i was just browsing, and saw that you guys now have Froyo now. it just warms my heart, to know that atleast some users still care to try, and the developers have the incentive to make this phone better then what Samsung or Verizon ever will.

so to imnuts, you need more then thanks, you need a medal...or gold...or a life time supply of....whatever you like.

it's this, this is what is great about Open Source, take an older device and make it better, this is why i love this place, and the developers, i mean, i'm using a Droid Incredible which ceased production in march, and the continuum is still IN production, but neither samsung nor verizon will push the update over the air, and i'm repeating myself.

long story short: keep up the good work, who knows, we may even see GB on this device.

This only works for JT's Vanilla GB V4 08/08!!!

So here we go...

Whats themed:

framework-res.apk

SystemUI.apk

Thats it! Very basic. It contains a white over scroll glow which you cannot see from the screenshots and some other stuff...
